For the letter Ff, I decided we would make flapjacks/pancakes and I'd introduce the children to how to follow a recipe, understand measuring, understand that flour comes from wheat and is used in many of our foods and how some foods come from animals, i.e. honey, milk, and eggs. Each child was a chef on this morning and measured the ingredients into a cup to make the batter. Then with help he/she poured the batter onto the griddle. Then they got to flip their flapjack. Best of all was eating their creation! I think they really enjoyed it because they keep asking to do it again. Here is the recipe in case you'd like to make some at home!
